Bra fitting help » A too big bra or just a full coverage bra?
Chantelle » Rive Gauche 3 Part Cup (3281) » 85G 38:7
Issue resolved
Nothing really. Just wearing as is
Original problem
There's no puckering in the cups but the wings are so high and the underwire seems awfully wide. Could this just be too large a cup size or is it just 'a lot of bra'? The band in a 48 seems huge too

helpfulYou definitely don't need a 38 band in this bra. I would advise you to try on a 36. And the cup fabric is very forgiving so 36G should have plenty of room, I'd think.

Too big. This is built to be a very supportive bra, it should definitely not feel anything like a camisole!

helpfulThe cups feel big because the bra is too big overall. Looking at the numbers I agree with wendybien about going for a 36.
Also, this bra's cups are very high coverage and have a very high center gore. You can look at pictures of how this bra fit other people and it will show that the cups are going too high on you. A smaller size can address this.

I'm so used to the support I get from Elomi bras that this one doesn't feel supportive at all. It's comfortable for sure but it almost feels like a snug camisole. Would that indicate a too large if cup also?
